Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
Mar 22 2008 04:50
Anyone else watching this? Cheesy action enjoyment! 
Plus what do people think of the three films?
Most people i know loved Terminator and T2 but didn't really rate T3. Not that they saw it! They didn't give it a chance! 
All the films are good and the series - thumping soundtrack, androids, action, great concept/story-line - what's not to like???

I thought it was terrible. That hasn't stopped me watching the entire season mind 
They could improve the series greatly by having each episode contain at least half an hour of Summer Glau kicking the shit out of other terminators.

That's because you don't like sci-fi you fucking wierdo. Freaks like you will be first against the wall.

Meh I don't really watched sci-fi but I like the first two Terminator films, and eh, Predator. And I did like shit like X-Files.
Do you even call Termintor sci-fi? I suppose... Anyway fuck it, Rambo's better.

never seen it, likely wont see it... with all due respect.
but my brother's watched it, and largely doesnt like it (i think he saw one episode which he said didnt suck) - and he likes sci fi.
one thing he thinks really needs to be changed is the lass who plays Sarah Connor, who he hates pretty well... dont precisely remember why. surely something along her being not much like Sarah Connor, acting like a pseudo-badass (as opposed to Connor in the first two movies, who was a genuine bad ass. er, well, in the second movie, anyway).

Sci-fi can be good but I prefer science fact.

I'm pretty uncritical when it comes to sci-fi shows and all I can say that it's fucking shite. Bionic Woman is way better, and even that is not exactly top notch entertainment. I watched the first three or four episodes but they were all the same - them being chased by terminators, nearly escaping and then some short show down. Waste of bandwidth.

The pilot was one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life.

So it's popular then - thought it would be. 
Asher and welshboy.
Feighnt - i appreciate the "all due respect. "
Don't mind the new SC - Lena Headey - have seen her in some legal roles and she has been ok in them. But yeah Linda Hamilton in T2 was amazing!!!! One bit of oft-repeated continuity is that the new SC is always being seen doing chin-ups all the time and no other form of exercise lol. No lunges, crunches, cardio work.. i think it is so they can show the steely facial expression plus they keep hammering home the point that this woman is having to be an alpha male to survive... we get it!
Yeah i like Summer Glau - it may not be original but i like the cute Dataesque android trying to understand humanity bits..
Khwaga - Ha! Can't face BW because i just cannot separate Ryan from "Enders. I nearly always prefer the originals of stuff anyways.
Conor - i guess Terminator is Sci-Fi/action crossover. Something for everyone - kinda! 
Jack - i haven't seen the terrible pilot - will have to catch that - just to be completist you understand.

oh you ever seen the UFO episode of Penn n Teller's Bullshit? Some pretty sweet mental interviews
An ex-crusty from Belfast swears he was visited by aliens twice.

Fuck no, thats a pile of shit. No surprise it was cancelled...
I'm still gonna defend T: SCC. It's not the brainiest of shows, but its good fun, and an interesting exploration of some bits of the Terminator universe (especially the future flash-forwards).

BW is way better than the shitest sci-fi show on TV. Still, BW is a pile of shit, just doesn't smell as bad as T: SCC.
At least Battlestar Galactica is starting very very soon, and Lost has been good so far.

the whole post.
BW has been cancelled? Shame.... 
Khawaga I need a word with you. Now. How could you, however marginally, prefer to watch that lame "Enders" actress playing a part for which she is WAY out of her depth compared to Headey who has played other ballsy characters before.. I mean, hello??? I think you should feel a sense of shame - I suggest 30 chinups - that should sort you out.

I saw T3 and didn't rate it. I've watched all the episodes of Sarah Connor Chronicles though, and have really enjoyed them. Pity it's finished for the season though, although it sounds like there might be another one. Wicked
